I really enjoyed this darkly comic thriller. Loved the twists and turns and learning about the background of Claire.

3.0

The premise got me and I was entertained for the first 20-40% but then it fell off and I quickly got bored. It just felt meh which is unfortunate because it's a woman who is a serial killer- not a common thing.
I found myself more into the 'then' time frame when we get a young Claire and her relationship with her mom and dad then the 'now' with her as an adult.
The blackmail and plot to kill other nursing home workers just fizzled away and everything was neatly explained and tied to one person when everyone else conveniently died.
Definitely disappointed with this one.
